It's still raining this morning so the picture is a bit darker/dull in the picture than it is IRL.
The stamp set is by Stamping Bella (chicks and sentiment). The chicks were stamped onto Bristol Smooth Surface 100lb and colored with Stampin' Up markers, with the vanilla scoop at the top colored in with Faber-Castell water color pencils. Though it's not apparent, the ice cream has been topped with Wink of Stella (clear) to give it a shimmery look. The sentiment was embossed using WOW ink and ultra fine white embossing power. The card base is Neenah Solar White, with a strip of SU basic black at the bottom. Not sure why the NSW looks so gray, but it's probably has to do with the poor lighting. The candy sprinkles on the vanilla scoop at the top are by PTI.
This might not be a perfect CAS card since the sentiment strip at the bottom takes up over a forth of the card. However I tried several ways to make a nice banner type strip and it just didn't look right. It kept throwing the whole card off balance. Please let me know if I've stepped too far over the line to be considered CAS. :)
Thank you for stopping in.
